If you want a pretty minimal distro to install, ArchLinux would probably work. It doesn't install anything you can't control, it's quite fast (including the package management,) and pretty easy to setup. You can install most everything you need for the server in about 10 minutes, and on a setup like that, give it an extra 20 (maximum) to actually install. Configuring it will take more time obviously. For a minimal interface, I'd recommend OpenBox or FluxBox.
